Description: Yamato, which is the old world name for Japan, is a traditional Japanese restaurant in the very best sense of the word. It is a family run restaurant where true Japanese food is lovingly prepared in a kitchen where only fresh ingredients are used to make the Tofu, sauces and noodles that in most other restaurants, are usually out sourced. All of the other ingredients necessary are imported by Yamato, directly from Japan. Opened in 1995 and situated just off Oxford Road in trendy Illovo, the restaurant itself is an elegant expression of the simplicity that underscores much of Japanese culture. The menu is extensive, with both a set menu and an a-la-carte section offering an amazing variety of delicacies. The a-la-carte menu has some amazing soups, exciting salads and starters with MamaSan's famous homemade Tofu. The menu uses fresh beef, chicken and pork, and probably the widest variety of fish you will find anywhere, in the making of the Sushi and Sashimi. Of course Tepanyaki is offered, so too is deep fried Tempura and traditional Japanese noodles. For dessert there are a number of options, an excellent choice being the Green Tea Ice Cream made from traditional Matcha. Naturally Saki is on offer, together with Japanese beer and a fine selection of wines. |
